About Sylvia

Experience: 11 yrs

Hi, I'm Sylvia! With over a decade of experience caring for children aged 1 month to 14 years, I bring a thoughtful, organized, and playful approach to childcare. My background includes working as both an assistant and lead teacher at a Montessori preschool and daycare, as well as providing full-time and part-time nannying and babysitting services. I hold a degree in psychology with a minor in education studies, specializing in special education and dual exceptionality. I have a particular fondness for working with toddlers aged 16 months to 3 years, a stage full of curiosity, growth, and discovery. My caregiving philosophy centers on understanding and aligning with each family's unique values and routines. I prioritize regular communication, ensuring your child's care is consistent, organized, and fun. I love planning engaging outdoor activities and creative play, while encouraging technology use in moderation.

Sylvia is reliable and attentive and took such good care of our 6-month old prior to starting daycare!
